The irony of reality TV is that it is the most unreal and surreal content to consume. Yet, we can’t help but binge on the trainwreck of the participant’s lives.
Basketball Wives is one such entertaining show that can keep you hooked for hours. The show follows the lives of women who are romantically linked with basketball players. The concept navigates the perks and perils of relationships under the limelight and shares the popularity of being an athlete’s partner.
Also, due to the countless cases of infidelity in the NBA fraternity, such a spotlight can be even more grueling for their partners. This is exactly what makes the show even more intriguing and feels like sipping and spilling some hot tea!
The recent target of the rumor mills was Jennifer Williams, one of the main casts of the Basketball Wives. Williams is known for being audacious and bold while being at loggerheads with her fellow star wives. But this time, she was not one to pull the antics.
Jennifer Williams was seen on the show with her boo, Jelani Garrison. Viewers had generally favorable opinions on the couple. But in March 2023, fans were shocked to see cryptic messages from Garrison indicating that he had a heartbreak. Jelani Garrison posted a story on Instagram in repose to Williams’s new flame (unidentified man), indicating that he is devastated by her “cheating.” But Williams called him out immediately, exposing that they had been broken up for the past nine months.
What Happened to Jennifer Williams and Jelani Garrison? Is Jennifer and Jelani Still a Couple?
The story starts during the last season when the show navigates the relationship between Jennifer Willaims and Jelani Garrison. The couple also reached the “meet-the-parents” phase. Viewers liked their cute banter and sweet moments.
But that all seems to be a charade after Garrison posted a story.
In the story, Jelani Garrison posted the image of Jennifer Williams with her new boyfriend and captioned it with “WOW,” followed by a heartbreak emoji. Comments started flooding in, siding with Garrison. The post implied that Williams was cheating on him since Teddy Pendergrass’ “The Whole Town’s Laughing at Me” was the background of his post.
However, Williams called him out immediately, asking him to stop this menace. She further revealed that they have been broken up for the past nine months. She said in the comments–
“This madness has to stop. I have not seen this man since July 2022… We been broke up for 9 months… !!”
This led the internet to speculate that their entire union was scripted just for the show and called out Williams for her hypocrisy of “keepin’-it-real” when she faked her relationship.
